On Tuesday, Wisconsin defensive end A.J. Natter received a message from the Iowa coaching staff saying that they would be evaluating his film this later week. Less than twenty-four hours later, the 6-foot-5, 240-pound Natter heard back from Iowa assistant coach Lester Erb, who told him that the Hawkeyes were ready to offer a scholarship.

"Coach Erb got in contact with my coach, who was actually not in school today, but he gave me a call and said to call Coach Erb. When I did, he said he had good news and they were ready to offer," said Natter. "I really wasn't expecting it because I just got an e-mail from him last night saying that he was going to take a look at my film, but he said after doing that today and sitting down with the other coaches, they wanted to offer right now."
